Some Goldem Slim Moments

Amarillo Slim doubled up an opponent after calling his all in with just a flush draw holding {K-Spades}{2-Clubs} on a board of {5-Spades}{J-Spades}{7-Spades}. Unfortunately for Slim, his opponent held {10-Spades}{Q-Spades} for the flopped flush. The turn was the {8-Diamonds} and river the {9-Diamonds} as the pot was sent to his opponent.

A few moments later, Slim was able to recover some chips after some aggressive betting on a flop of {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Spades}. Slim got his opponent to fold A-Q face up as Slim said "Pocket kings" before flashing 8-2! "Oh I guess I need to get some glasses!"
